Inuit don't fall under the Indian Act, and that has allowed for Inuit to chart a very different path with the Government of Canada, in a relationship sense. We have modern treaties, and we have co-management structures that have been created by each one of those treaties, including the two that are in Nunavik: the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement and the Nunavik agreement. This is, I think, a more self-determining way of relating between first nations, Inuit and Métis and the Government of Canada than, perhaps, legislation or other structures that were created over 100 years ago.
I think it remains one of our biggest challenges. The complexity of our relationship, which was mostly created by the federal government through legislation, policy and constitutional status, is often too complex for the federal government itself to understand and to apply to its relationship with first nations, Inuit and Métis. We, on the other hand, struggle to understand this complexity fully, especially on the political side, as we make honest attempts to work with you but are confused by the responses that we often get.
